Answer:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

25+144= c^2

(radical over 169) = (radical over c^2)

13=c

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagoras

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

  • a = 5
  • b = 12
  • c = ?

Solution

c^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

c^2 = 25 + 144

c^2 = 169

Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(169)

c = 13
